I know you have a lot of questions about going to work. I am asking businesses to make responsible decisions for their employees and the general public. I didn’t define “essential” businesses in my proclamation, 🧵👇🏼
but any business that cannot maintain appropriate physical distancing between customers, other employees, and the general public should only be functioning if they provide critical services OR can continue to operate with appropriate physical distancing and intentional
safety measures in place. Guidelines on critical services can be found here: cisa.gov/publication/gu…
We want you to voluntarily comply with the Governor’s directive and my Proclamation. It’s not just about whether you think you are going to get sick
We want you to voluntarily comply with the Governor’s directive and my Proclamation. It’s not just about whether you think you are going to get sick
– it’s about whether you might accidentally make your neighbors sick. Remember that certain populations are extra vulnerable to COVID 19, and by spreading your germs you are putting other people in harm’s way.
Violations of any emergency proclamation can subject you to a Class B misdemeanor, but the City is not out to charge you criminally if you violate this Proclamation – we just want you to comply, be safe, and keep other residents safe.
As a reminder: this doesn’t mean you can never leave your home. Check out these infographics for guidelines about being in outdoor spaces and patronizing businesses. #utpol #slc #FlattenTheCuve #StaySafeStayHome
